Epilobium angustifolium

This was one of the first plant scientific names I learned, and about the only one I can now remember. I love it's name - it seems to roll off the tongue.

Also known as rosebay willowherb, or fireweed. It can be very bright and distinctive even in this half-light. It is often classed as a weed although I like it where it forms a nice border down our track.
